CAS Stencil Card Challenge: Powdered Inks Reminder

Already time for our CAS Stencil Card Challenge Reminder Cards

Loving all the gorgeous and creative cards by out talented DT and in
the growing gallery by our friends:-)




My Card using Lindy Magicals with a leaf stencil.

I made my Magicals Powdered Ink stencil background at our May 2018 Retreat.
I used Loll's Lindy Magicals,  so do not know the names and Christine's
leaf stencil.  Again no name,  but think it was a TCW Stencil.

I tried hard to get a close up photo of the Lindy Magicals shimmer,  but no luck.
If you are familiar with Lindy Magicals you know there is gorgeous glimmer on my card.

All I did was die cut my background with Memory Box Stitched Rectangle Die
and used MISTI to stamp with Versafine Black ink my STAMPlorations
 Say it Big "Simple Life" sentiment and heat embossed with SU Clear EB powder.

Next popped up image with fun foam onto SU Whisper White Thick CS card base.

And Done!


My 2nd card using the negative Stenciled Magicals background.

 Loll's Stencil Powdered Video (8:16) is a great example of how to make positive and 
then a negative background at the same time.
Always a plus to end up with a Twofer!

I finished this negative background by die cutting the card front with Penny Black
Antique Frame Die and set aside.  Then die cut the SU Whisper White Thick card front.

Next place die cut image in MISTI and stamped and heat embossed 
SSS sentiment (Bouquet of Thanks).

Attached white frame to card base with 3M foam dimensionals.
Then Inlaid main image and added die cut frame.
I loved the de-pressed look of the card front.

 Like my 1st card I could not get a photo of the pretty Magicals Shimmer.

Enjoy and hope you play along with our new CAS Stencil Card Challenge.
You have until the 24th to play along.
Hugs...Nancy

CAS Watercolour Rainbow

Springtime and Rainbows are a beautiful combination!
Here is Loll's May CAS Watercolour Card Challenge.

You are going to love all the gorgeous samples from our DT 
and our very talented GD Hannelie (desert diva).


Here is my SSS Luminary Circles Dies using Rainbow Distress Oxide Inks!

I sponged T.H. Distress Inks:Candied Apple, Spice Marmalade, Wild Honey, 
Lucky Clover, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet onto 
Strathmore Mixed Media paper. Then used my aqua painter to spread watercoloured inks.

Next die cut my background with SSS "Luminary Circles Die".  
Using my new SSS Marvy Jewel Picker made picking up
and gluing each circle thru the die negative onto SU Thick Whisper White CS, 
so quick and easy. I Loved the result.

I think this Jewel Picker is a must have tool for picking up sequins, etc.

Next I die cut the XOXO from a scrap of watercoloured background 
and glued onto cardstock.  Then popped up with fun foam.

So colorful and fun.  Thanks again Loll for a cool challenge.

You have until the 24th to play along.  Happy Springtime Stamping. Hugs..

CAS Butterfly Thank You



I had fun today designing a thank you card using the current CTS #163 designed by Chrissy Larson.


I used SU Wildflower Fields DSP from the SAB catty and a SU retired Washi Tape.  I then used SU markers to ink up my STAMPlorations "Mini Mixed Media Backgrounds" stamp and spritzed with water to give it a Watercolor look.  I stamped my SU "Papillon Potpourri" butterfly using Memento Tuxedo light grey ink and colored with SU markers: Calypso Coral, Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey.  Spritzed with water and then punched out with my SU Elegant Butterfly punch.

I shaped my butterfly with my bone folder, added gel medium for a bit of gloss and clear Wink of Stella for glitter and attached with dimensionals.

Adding my Simon Says Stamp "Lots of Thanks" sentiment for the final touch.

I am adding my card to several more favorite Challenges.









Card Recipe:

Stamps: STAMPlorations "Mini Mixed Media BGs", Simon Says Samp "Lots of Thanks", SU "Papillon Potpourri"

Inks:  Memento London Fog, SU markers: Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey and Calypso Coral.  SU Blackberry Bliss ink pad

Paper:  Whisper White Thick, SU Wildflower Fields DSP

Techniques:  Watercolor Spritzing, Stamping, CAS

Other:  SU Elegant Butterfly punch, Thick Gel Medium, Washi Tape, dimensionals, Spritzer with water
